The result was delete. The argument that coverage exceeds ROUTINE has not successfully made. If someone wants to use the information elsewhere I would be happy to userfy the page to them. J04n( talk page) 18:04, 23 November 2014 (UTC)
Per WP:SPORTSEVENT, individual games are not inherently notable and must generally satisfy the general notability guidelines to be suitable for inclusion. Coverage must exceed WP:ROUTINE post-game coverage of typical individual games. While this article is the 100th Backyard Brawl, this game itself is not listed at List of historically significant college football games and only has two sentences in the introduction of Backyard Brawl. Merely being the 100th one is notability inherited. At the same time, while it was voted ESPNU's "Game of the Year", there's no evidence that every game of the year is inherently notable because of that and other than its inclusion at Template:ESPN College Football, there is no mention of this game (or of 'games of the year') at ESPN College Football (not even a list). Upsetting one team's championship hopes is notable to their season but the game itself is not. I think this content should be incorporated into the parent articles about the season of the individual teams ( 2007 Pittsburgh Panthers football team and 2007 West Virginia Mountaineers football team) along with the series ( Backyard Brawl) but it does not meet the criteria for a separate article.
